Lately I've been listening to:
Nickleback's Rockstar
A couple of Shakira's songs
Abba's Take a Chance on Me and Momma Mia
Tom Jones' Kiss
Moby's Southside
Big and Rich's Ride a Cowboy

and a few others. But, I'm ready to rock out to some different stuff.

What's on your playlist???

Gnarls Barkley - "Going on" (soo catchy)
Mandalay - "Please"
Simple Minds - "Don't you (forget about me")
Saliva - "Click Click Boom"
TV Rock - "Flaunt it"

Some of this stuff is a little slow tempo - but it's perfect for pilates - esp. warm up and cool down.

The faster stuff gets me thru the gruelling 'hundreds' on the reformer hehe.

I like the faster stuff for power walking.

I like to listen to Prince sometimes (I was born in MN, and we love our Prince)

"Upgrade" by Beyonce is a good one to get your butt moving. Also "Get Me Bodied" and "Sugar Mamma" are other good ones from Beyonce off that cd.

Hmmm, I mostly listen to rock/alternative in my car and around the house but workout stuff for me is mostly pop/hip hop. I guess some rock/alt tracks to workout to would be "Dashboard" by Modest Mouse, "Fire Woman" by The Cult, "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World, can't think of too many current ones off the top of my head. I need to download some more songs I think.


Oh, my all time favorite cool down/stretching song is "A Thousand Years" by Sting (It's also good for belly dancing)

I love really fast, fun music.

On my playlist I have:

"Thriller" Michael Jackson
"It's All Been Done" Bare Naked Ladies
"Dancing Queen" ABBA
"Go West" The Village People
"Don't Stop Till You Get Enough" Michael Jackson
"Rhythum Nation" Janet Jackson
"Everywhere" Michelle Branch
& a bunch of other stuff I can't remember right now

I named my workout playlist "Bag of Chips" because when I work out I feel so good that I'm "All that and a bag of chips". It makes me laugh when I see it
